Kwz Ink Old Gold

[lgsoltek]

Another gorgeous ink from KWZI. Konrad is great at making "gold" inks.

My Nakaya is a bit dry. The next time I'm going to try it in a wetter pen. I'm sure it'll look wonderful.

I am all for changing the name to Cyber6's Old Gold or Cyber6's favorite - KWZI OG. Or maybe we should get you a little seal that says, Favorite of Cyber6. Let me work on that.

 

LG, thanks for the great review.

Okay, Cyber6, what do you th-INK? I've also included a draft badge if I like it (which should include a warning).

Love those badges! We need some stinkin' badges!

 

btw, how does this ink look in a regular medium nib? Is it towards the lighter range or the darker?

I don't know, LG, what do you think? how does this ink look in a regular medium nib? Is it towards the lighter range or the darker?

In the Gold comparison thread there's a photo of it in a Lamy 1.5 stub.

Thanks! And looking at Vanness it seems like a nice golden brown. There may well bother KWZ inks in my future.

Definitely one of my very favorite inks!

Pardon me for summoning up that which was at rest, but could anyone who has used both KWZ Old Gold and Sheaffer King's Gold comment on how they compare? I have but one cartridge of King's Gold left (and, yea, very little of that cartridge), and will be very sad to see it go. I'd love a solid replacement, and (given the limitations of photography, monitor color fidelity, and eyeballs) KWZ Old Gold looks quite similar in terms of hue and shading.

I have both .. and they are quite different. Check Post #43 on the Doppelganger thread...

Sheaffer's Kings Gold is there..

 

 

Is very possible, your cartridges have evaporated a bit, thus making the ink looks more saturated.
